This unit cannot receive HD Radio signals (digital terrestrial radio). In
order to activate the dig tal radio functions described below, an optional
HD Radio Tuner module must be connected through the Ai-NET bus.
iTunes Tagging lets you tag songs you hear on HD Radio stations with
your new CDA-117 and then preview, buy, and download them later
from your iTunes Tagged playlist the next time you sync your iPhone/
iPod. If the unit is connected to a Tagging compatible device, you can
use the iTunes Tagging function. For details, refer to the Owner’s
Manual of the Tagging compatible device.
